Trump & Vance’s Secret Epstein Meeting, Netanyahu’s Power Grab, Catholic Bishops vs. Alligator Alcatraz, and GOP Midterm Rigging — with Mike Nellis and Joe Walsh

Welcome to the Party, Pal! With Mike Nellis & Joe Walsh — Fridays 12pm ET

Friends,

We just wrapped another raw, raucous, no-holds-barred episode of Welcome to the Party, Pal—and if you missed it live, trust me, you’re gonna want to catch the replay. Joe Walsh and I cover everything from GOP corruption to the fight for a functional democracy, and we don’t hold back.

🎙️ Here’s what went down:

  • [00:03:00] We dive straight into the bombshell about J.D. Vance’s secret Epstein meeting, Trump’s direct cover-up order, and why it’s worse than anyone’s admitting.

  • [00:05:00] A raw, honest exchange on Israel-Palestine tensions inside the Democratic Party, where Joe shares what it’s like being a pro-Israel Dem, and I challenge us all to have the hard convos.

  • [00:08:00] We unpack the disturbing secret Epstein meeting with J.D. Vance, Trump’s cover-up orders, and the chilling normalization of corruption at the highest levels.

  • [00:18:00] Gerrymandering, census manipulation, and the terrifying erosion of democratic norms—it’s all happening right now, and we break down why it should scare the hell out of you.

  • [00:29:00] I go in on Alligator Alcatraz and Trump’s cruelty toward trans vets—plus why moral clarity and backbone should define our strategy in 2026 and beyond.

This is a must-watch for anyone who cares about reclaiming decency, justice, and actual democracy in America. If you believe in the fight, if you want in on the plan, if you're tired of being afraid—this conversation is essential.
